Fanoris Jermaine Jackson Jr. was 20 when he was shot on April 15, 2017, at the Highland Woods Apartments near 5751 Riverdale Road in Clayton County, in the College Park area south of Atlanta. Officers nearby heard gunfire and found Jackson on the pavement with multiple gunshot wounds; he was alive when first responders arrived but died at a hospital soon afterward.

Police said the killing followed an altercation at the apartment complex. Witnesses pointed officers toward a man running from the scene; officers chased on foot but the suspect escaped. Investigators described the person they were seeking as a Black male wearing all black, about 5 feet 9 inches to 5 feet 11 inches and roughly 150 to 160 pounds. Initial reports stated no one was in custody and detectives continued to try to determine what led to the shooting.

Jackson’s memorial and obituary pages note his death and funeral arrangements but do not report any confirmed arrest or prosecution in the case. Does anyone have information about what happened that afternoon or about the person seen running from the scene?
